penn state can give you the "blues". - Anonymous employee Penn State Employee Review

some of the best things about penn state are its stability and certainty in keeping jobs in state college. the people do make it a great place to work. we work together as a team. people generally like working with one another. the vision to reach students is uncompromising and fufulling. i'm not sure there is another college or university out there that reaches as deeply into the community and the state itself. there is growth (although slow at times). the benefits package is incredible. it makes up for dismal salaries and smaller chances to advance. advancement is heralded, but not seen frequently.
